Dear Ministry of Transportation and Infrastructure,

The news that your Ministry has decided to unilaterally impose the following changes to Main Street in the District of North Vancouver leading east to the Ironworkers Memorial Bridge:

To close the dedicated lane for eastbound traffic through to Dollarton and Seymour

To dedicate both eastbound lanes to the perpetual and exhaustive bridge congestion.

This will have a profoundly negative impact on:
All residents who live and work east of the Bridgehead.
The Squamish and Tsleil-Waututh First Nations
The Main Street commercial sector
And the important commercial traffic ingressing and egressing the Port Facilities in the area.

We people of Seymour recall well the mayhem unleashed upon us in 1995 when you resurfaced the Ironworkers Bridge and it was taking 3-4 hours to transit from the central North Shore to Seymour - even without wanting to use the Bridge.

Please: STOP THIS NOW. Listen to District of North Vancouver Council and Staff and we, the people.
